The file creation time is being used. Maybe your software is setting file time to the shot taken time from EXIF or something like that? Check the creation times in the file attributes.

You just have to specify a longer time threshold so that it doesn't decide prematurely that the stack is complete.

Why do you want to wait? The strength of the folder monitor is that it processes the files as they appear and the result is ready almost immediately after the last file has been downloaded, rather than having to wait for however much time it takes to process the whole stack.

It wouldn't need fixing if Apple didn't break it with every update (which they only started doing with macOS 13).
With regards to performance let's wait for OpenCL support (likely tomorrow) and then run the benchmark. Were you comparing the exact same stack with the same settings?

Yes, we know, working on it.

This has been fixed and the update has been published on Google Play.

We've never heard about this lens. Please download Helicon Remote and give it a try, it's free.
It has to be an AF lens in order for automated focus bracketing to work. Other functions will work with any lens.

Yes, you should first do focus processing, as panorama stitching will mess with alignment.

That was a different issue.

Then it's most likely because of the lens and we don't know any way to fix it.
The software is sending the correct commands to the camera, as evidenced by the Nikon lenses working. Why the camera doesn't actuate the Tamron lens appropriately is a question to the camera's firmware developers.

Autofocus and the arrows most likely don't work for the same reason, and the reason is something in the camera settings. Make sure that autofocus is enabled in the camera and only the most basic single-shot mode is selected. The lens should be set to AF and full range.

Please send a bug report when the camera is connected and turned on. Menu - Help - Report a bug on Windows / Mac; menu - Feedback on Android / iOS.
If you're connecting with a USB cable, make sure Wi-Fi is off in the camera, else it won't work.

Hello,

Please send a bug report after this happens (menu - Help - Report a bug).
Don't try to stop the shooting sequence, just submit a report.

Hello! Yes, the dust map function also supports hot pixel removal via a black image, just as you suggested. It's only to remove stuck pixels, so make sure that the exposure is low so that regular sensor noise doesn't appear. Noise reduction is a completely different task best done by specialized sof...
